I'm hoping it's extremely strange

Well then it all starts with an extremely strange tailgate.

It’s difficult for a team to get up every week and sometimes enough tougher when it’s known the talent level you’re facing is low. Oklahoma came out at halftime and did whatever they wanted. I expect them to be fully prepared for Nebraska.

Vegas sees this as somewhat close and they almost always know more than I do, but to me it looks like the easiest bet of the year.
for the record, Vegas had Nebraska as -23 last week.   -23!   My only regret was not parlaying my GASO +23 play with the Iowa total under and the AFA -16.   I was not able to three way with a total.

#6 Oklahoma Sooners (2-0) at Nebraska Cornhuskers (0-1, 1-2)
NOON - Lincoln, NE - FOX
Well this sure as hell isn't what we wanted.  The first Oklahoma-Nebraska home and home series since 2008-2009, and while Nebraska made it a game last year, it featured arguably the worst back to back Cornhusker teams in two generations.  8 wins over 2016-2017 was the program's worst two year stretch since Bill Jennings had 7 in 1960 and 1961.  Nebraska needs to go 4-5 the rest of the way to match that.  In fairness, Scott Frost started at Nebraska when Oklahoma was at rock bottom.  His Huskers beat a pair of Oklahoma teams that went 7-16, by a combined score of 142-28, over his two years as starter in 1996 and 1997.  My how the turntables.  The Sooners' offense doesn't look quite the same without Lincoln Riley (and, in fairness, Caleb Williams), but Brent Venables has the defense rolling.  It seems like Jeff Lebby finally figured out his running back situation, and Eric Gray and Marcus Major feel like a solid 1-2 punch going forward.  I think Jovantae Barnes' time is up, because Gray and Major combined for 15 carries and 109 yards, for 7.3 ypc.  Barnes might be the future back there, but he can't be the 1b, while averaging 2.3 ypc, against a bad MAC team, like Kent State.  The Sooner defense is being bolsted by sophomore linebacker Danny Stusman.  Stutsman was an overlooked, low 3* recruit, whose only other Power 5 offers were Baylor and Kansas State, the second lowest rated recruit in the Sooners' class.  But he's #7 in the nation in tackles, giving me strong Rocky Calmus out of nowhere vibes.  Last year, as the Texas starter, Casey Thompson threw for 388 yards, 5 touchdowns, and no interceptions, in the Red River Shootout.  He'll have to do that again to give the Huskers a chance, but remember, even doing that a year ago, Texas lost

Nebraska TE Travis Vokolek has been cleared to play.  Huge boost for the Huskers.

Yeah, Nebraska is a dumpster fire. I just didn’t understand anyone’s optimism here. I don’t bet often, but definitely took advantage of this one.

Frost had them better prepared for the Sooners last year than interim dude did this year.

How many times can we fire Frost?  Once doesn't feel like enough.
